“Dirty is the original ratchet,” charges Wu-Tang Clan’s U-God. “People don’t even know that.” But, the world will soon when the late and beloved Wu-Tang member is resurrected in a virtual performance at the 2013 Rock the Bells during his old hip-hop crew headlining set. The hologram-like visuals — the late Eazy-E will also reappear during Bone Thugs-N-Harmony’s set — were re-imagined by Rock the Bells founder Chang Weisberg after being inspired by Tupac’s posthumous appearance at Coachella in 2012.

“He taught me so much as person, as an entertainer, as a rhymer,” says U-God remembering his lost pal ODB. “I ain’t seen him in years. It’s tough.”
